9.2. DEVELOPMENT OF APPLICATIONS
For software development the Insight Desktop

TM

, a comprehensive integrated

development environment (IDE) and C-language compiler toolchain from Ember

TM

Inc. is

required. Insight Desktop

is part of Ember

TM

development kits and can currently be

purchased together with programming adaptors as EM250 jumpstart kit at a price of
USD 2500,- directly from Ember

TM

Inc.

(www.ember.com)

.

The environment works with the preceeding EM2420, the EM250 and the upcoming
EM260. For code development it comprises the Integrated Development Environment
(IDE) named xIDE based on eclipse 3.1.0 for editing, compiling and debugging of C–
applications. In addition network visualization and debugging tools are included. For (re-)
programming the Ember

TM

Insight Adapter is required. This adaptor has to be linked to

the computer where the Ember

TM

Insight Desktop is installed on over an Ethernet

network connection. The SIF interface cable delivered with the Insight Adaptor can
directly connect to the 10 pin header named SIF on the
PAN 4570 carrierboard. Before connecting PAN4570 to the Ember

Insight Adaptor

study the latest Ember

ZIGBEE STACK

EmberZNet (currently version 2.5.0) is the ZigBee stack provided with EM250. It supports
as networking topologies true mesh, star and cluster networks. As ZigBee devices
ZigBee Coordinator, ZigBee Full Fuctional Device and ZigBee End Devices are
supported.
For the ease of application programming EmberZNet is controlled by the application over
API commands. Direct ZigBee APS layer APIs are provided for applications that require
low level ZigBee control.
According to [3] each ZigBee device has a unique address. This address has to be used
by the device and is stored on the EM250 in PAN4570.
